Sometimes my husband and I argue and I stress about my kids seeing that. But I figure they also get to witness us both taking responsibility for our frustrations and learning how to heal them. They’re learning that relationships aren’t easy, but they are worth working for.
As long as you’re not passing the pain on to your kiddos, but rather just experiencing it and moving through it honestly, what else can you do?
You’re so right though. We do know more than our parents did here. And having big feelings is MILES away from being abusive. Different worlds.
